Generate an image of mathematical diagrams representing various problems related to Pythagorean theorem. Firstly, visualize a right triangle with sides representing possible Pythagorean triples such as 27, 38, 42; 33, 44, 55; 35, 38, 42; and 68,72,81. Secondly, another right triangle with sides 12, 16, and an unknown hypotenuse. Next, depict a baseball diamond with clear labels for home plate, first base, and second base, with a distance of 90 feet between home and first base. Then, include an image of a clock with hands indicating the time of 9 o'clock, and specific lengths given to the hour and minute hands. Lastly, decorate an image of a TV set with dimensions mentioned, 36 inches wide and diagonal of 42 inches.

Which set represents a Pythagorean triple?

27, 38, 42

#1.

since you know 3,4,5 is a pythagorean triple, so is any multiple of those numbers. Looks like 33,44,55 to me.

#2
just multiply 3,4,5 by 4.

#3.
since the diagonal of a 90' square is 90√2, pick the only answer greater than 90. (you might also check it to be sure it fits)

#4.
at 9:00 you have a right triangle with legs 1.2 and 1.5. just figure the hypotenuse. (looks like another 3,4,5 triangle to me!)

#5.
to avoid working with big numbers, scale down by a factor of 6. Now you have a side of 6 and a hypotenuse of 7.
49-36 = 13, so 6*√13 = 21.6

Im not screwed. I know this stuff, just too lazy to sit and do math. Lol. Plz dont raid the like button.

Lana is correct

just took it

not saying I don't also use this, but in the future on the end of year, we're all screwed because we don't know this.

Oops. #4 isn't 3,4,5. It's 4,5,√41, scaled by .3. SO, .3√41 = 1.9
